Hi Craig.
Absolutely! Much like all the old UK appliance names - either a shadow of their former selves or no longer sold:-(
I know the machines you refer to - piccy of the Jackson machine below. I was the proud owner of a Hotpoint WM52 and can say that it was a great machine that did all a house of 4 new graduates required of it.
Jackson became the posh name which, as far as I understand it, was used in the early to mid 80s for the semi integrated offerings from TI, although the Jackson dishwasher was a Philips.
Will post some piccies of them soon.

When I saw that venting adapter along side the dryer without it, I thought we were being shown the difference between a partially and fully dialated cervix of some giant animal.

Thanks for the info Al.
Its always useful to try and put things into some sort of order and, with the business structure and many subsidiaries of TI, understanding where Creda fits in is a tad more complicated than the norm.
Its only recently that I looked at the Laundrair dryer and it just slapped me across the face that it was a Parnall.
Its probably got something to do with the recent discussions that have taken place concerning the Parnall TD59, that made me realise.
Then looked at the washer and it was a Parnall Spinwasher!
You mention Jackson - here the advert from 1984...

Paul,
Shell re-spray.
I gave the company a rocket today, last week I sent a polite email enquiring as to weather it had been completed, no reply, I sent another and again no reply, then I started to get a bit sweaty, OMG have they gone into receivership or even lost the panels. So I paid them a visit today, gladly still in operation, funny how you start to think the worst of a situation, any how the stripping company are the problem, and the panels should be back from them tomorrow, re-coated later that day, so should be ready to collect this Friday.
Fingers crossed.

Hi Tom.
I had assumed that your 17064E was maybe a machine sold over here and then taken abroad when the owners emigrated, but you mentioning that it has the temperatures listed in fahrenheit, rather than centigrade, maybe means that it was something a bit different.
Maybe the 'E' means export?

Theory...
The Laundrair washing machine was discontinued and Creda ceased to have its name on a washing machine for a number of years.
However they stayed stuck hard and fast to tumble dryers and of course spinners.
The absorbtion of Parnall saw them adopt the Parnall TD67 as their compact dryer...

Too bloody right, I have been waiting for one for years, it’s not slipping out of my grip this time, fallen out with her-in-doors over it as well, found out how much it cost to buy in the first place and had to confess to how much the re-paint is costing, ho well not to worry, usual sentence of a you no what ban, in other words no early nights for a week or too or even three.
I have got to smuggle in the next item as well, just got a Hoover constellation from ebay, will arrive some time next week, being delivered to my work so it can slip under the radar in the dead of night, must oil the runners on the garage door so it runs silently.

and the TD400A, kindly provided by Gary (electron1100) who saved it from certain death, when it was taken to the tip where he works.
I remember that it was mentioned that this very machine MIGHT have been a prototype or very early production machine and that it was taken to the tip by an ex-creda employee...
